      When did handgun registration begin?

      This thread gives me a headache. When GCA 68 was passed, forbidding interstate sales of handguns between individuals, Maryland already had a waiting period/background check. Until 1995/97 (not sure which) private handgun sales between individuals were not restricted. After that date individuals...

      Senator Zirkin

      I don't know anything about this pol except that he apparently saved our tails. What can you guys tell me about him? I haven't contributed a penny to any politician since Dan Bongino lost his Congressional race but I feel like I owe Zirkin. Am I missing anything?

      .22 LR ammo (new)

      Since the current thread ".22 LR Ammo" has 2751 replies and about 290,000 hits, perhaps it should be deleted and re-started?

      Looking for something used for trap

      CDNN has Mossberg 500 28" VR barrels with 3 chokes for $90 plus shipping. I bought one earlier this year. I can't speak for skeet or clays, but that's all you need to get started with trap. Most of the trap shooters I've rubbed elbows with are proud of their shotguns and generous about letting...

      Astra Model 1921 9MM

      An original should be rust blued. About 20 years ago a large quantity were imported that had horrible bores and had been dipped blued. If buying the first thing to check is the condition of the barrel. These pistols should only be fired with 9mm Largo ammunition.

      Selling Hand Gun to another state?

      I went through this a couple of years ago. I'm in MD and wanted to sell a handgun to my friend in VA. I hand carried the pistol to Sharpshooters (formerly Gilbert Small Arms) in Lorton, they put it on their books, my friend paid me, and for me-transaction complete. I didn't think to ask what...

      Century Star B first range trip - fail

      Could this pistol be chambered for 9mm Largo, and 9mm Parabellum won't cycle?

      S&W 67 hammer not working

      Bump. I'd love to know if this was resolved.

      S&W 67 hammer not working

      I may be completely wrong, but did you check the strain screw?

      S&W 67 hammer not working

      Check the mainspring strain screw, in front of the grip (and below where the pic posted by Lee is cut off). This screw tensions the mainspring and needs to be tight. If the screw is loose and backing out the revolver will also stop working SA.

      Re: Garand vs Mini 14 vs SKS

      Garand. If the op wants a hunting rifle for deer or black bear the M1 is the pick.

      Beretta 1935

      I've been waiting for someone to make a crack about the ejection pattern. I have a 1935 ('50's commercial) and a 418 (.25 ACP). I need to wear a hat when I shoot these pistols because they both eject in an arc that hits me on top of my head.

      Mauser 1914

      The Mauser 1910/14/34 pistols have always fascinated me. The elaborate machining, complexity of design for a simple blowback. Very German. I wonder about the retail price if manufactured today.

      light slide pull in 9mm or smaller?

      Walther P38/P1. Lots of police surplus, I think the distributors are out but plenty on Gunbroker.
